Sprat is the common name applied to a group of forage fish belonging to the genus Sprattus in the family Clupeidae.

The term also is applied to a number of other small sprat-like forage fish.

Like most forage fishes, sprats are highly active, small, oily fish. They travel in large schools with other fish and swim continuously throughout the day.
The polyunsaturated fatty acids contained in sprats have been found to help prevent mental, neural, and cardiovascular diseases.

They are eaten in many places around the world and are sometimes passed off as other fish. Products sold as sardines sometimes are prepared from sprats, as the authentic ones were less accessible.

They are known for their smooth flavour and are easy to mistake for baby sardines.

If smoked, Sprat is considered to be one of the foods highest in purine content. People who suffer from gout or high uric acid in the blood should avoid eating such foods.
